He honed a skill through more than a decade of tireless work, and became one of the best in the world in an incredibly competitive field. When on the cusp of seeing all of his effort pay off, his body broke down and he became a public laughingstock.

This is not a heartwarming story.

If they shut it down, it’ll get rebooted 10 years down the road by some jackhole who thinks it needs to be “more exciting” and I don’t need that kind of negativity in my life.

So no one is going to point out the escalating violence following an apparent suicide attempt (driving in front of a train after stopping at the crossing)?
